The
beginning of May brings many exciting things-one of which is AP testing. AP classes are programs created
by the College Board, which offers college-level curricula and examinations to
high school students. AP stands for Advanced Placement. Colleges and
universities often grant placement and course credit to students who obtain
high scores on the examinations.
AP exams will begin at the
beginning of May and go through the end of May. Reagan Mackie is a junior who
will be taking 4 exams this year.
“I’m in AP composition, AP psychology,
AP world history and AP human geography,” said Mackie.
It is important to start studying at an early date so students can be
prepared for the test according to collegeboard.org
“Yeah, I started studying about two weeks ago. Yes, I’m ready for my
test,” Mackie said when asked about the upcoming tests.
A student at Southeast Polk can take many AP classes that include but are
not limited to AP calculus, AP U.S history, AP Literature, AP biology, and AP chemistry.
“My hardest
class is AP world history,” said Mackie.
Mackie recommends taking AP classes but not too many at the same time.
She also says to make sure to balance your schedule.The first AP testing day is Monday, May 4.
